Audi has unveiled the TT RS at the Beijing Motor Show in its Coupe and Roadster form. This also marks the sportscar's world debut at the event in China.
The performance oriented sportscar is powered by a 2.5-litre five-cylinder TFSI engine that produces 400bhp of power and 480Nm of torque. This mill comes paired to a seven-speed S-Tronic transmission and sends the power to all the wheels through the Quattro AWD system. The 0-100kmph sprint is done in 3.7seconds (3.9seconds for the Roadster), before achieving an electronically-limited speed of 250kmph.
The carmaker has added a sportier body kit to the car which now features large vents, a hexagonal single-frame mesh grille, Matrix LED headlamps, 20-inch forged rims, a new rear wing and chrome plated wing mirror caps. Both the body styles get these exterior changes giving the vehicle a fresh look. The Audi TT RS also becomes the first Audi product to get OLED tail lamps. Exterior body colour options include nardo gray and catalunya red colours as seen in the pictures.
The sportscar's interior boasts of a performance themed Audi Virtual Cockpit display, a new flat-bottomed steering wheel with start-stop button, Audi drive select and gear paddles. The infotainment system includes a MMI navigation plus with MMI touch and a Bang & Olufsen sound system.
The Audi TT RS will go on sale in the European markets this fall and make it to the global markets thereafter. The Coupe and Roadster is priced in Europe at €66,400 (Rs 49,82,724) and €69,200 (Rs 52,09,271) respectively.
